This exhibit is under the efficient management oi llr. J. W. Biglow. President of the NoVa Scotia. Fruit Growa's' Association. The exhibit consists of twenty barrels oi Nova 1 Scotia apples of commercial varie- 1 ties, grouped with a view to showing ‘ quantity and quality. Mr. Biglow has a specialty of showing apples in the name of the growers. In this class he has one hundred varieties grown by the exhibitors. Amongst these maybe mentioned Mr. Starr, oi Starr’s Point, Nova Scotia. who produced this year 2,500 barrels on. 26 acres. The names of other pro- minent exhibitors are J. Elliot Smith, who exhibits two barrels; Mrs. Olivia Johnston, who is a hor- ticulturist from the word "go"; Mr. S. M. Vaughn; Mr. Herbert John- ston and others. A tine display of potatoes has been sent from Nova Scotia Government Farm at Truro, and from the Canadian Government Farm at Nappan, about 60 bottles ' of iruits in acids. Nova Scotia is famous for its apples of superior uality. In London, England, espe- cially they are highly esteemed. 800,- 000 barrels are annually exported to the old country. This year the crop has been so good that a larger uantity is available Nova, Scotia apples now bring a price varying from three to five dollars per barrel.
